 Rating: - The first school book that I honestly enjoyed!My literature class used this book last semester. It has so many excellent poems and short stories and plays. Not all of them were good, but that's what happens when you compile a lot of works. I enjoyed a good majority of the selections that we did read and an inquiring about a copy for myself! |
